Why Must It End
CD (Item 479691) Sound Stage 7/Soulscape (UK), Late 60s — Condition: New Copy
Deep soul from Roscoe Robinson – a singer who hardly ever got his due, but who made some killer singles at the end of the 60s! Roscoe's got a style that's rooted in the south, but has funkier touches too – a blend that marks his time spent both in the south and up in Chicago – served up here in a batch of singles recorded for the Gerri and Sound Stage Seven record labels! There's a gritty edge to most of these tunes – not one that comes from rough production or uncareful recording, but from Roscoe's raspy, personal vocals – which are unlike any other singer of his time we can think of. Robinson's got a great way of avoiding cliches, and moving towards the unfamiliar – really surprising us with the turns he takes in the tunes, a good deal of which he penned himself. CD features 20 tracks in all – including "One Bo-Dillion Years", "Let Me Know", "Why Are You So Afraid", "That's Enough", "One More Time", "My Pride Won't Let Me", "I'm Burning & Yearning", "In Time You'll See", "Tis Yuletide", "Don't Forget The Soldiers", "Leave You In The Arms Of Another Man", and "Darling Please Tell Me". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
